Loser's Choice - [Winner: Hath]

[drunkmonkey]

Format: 8 player games, Standard, Auto, Seq, Escalating, Chained, Sunny

8 groups of 8 players. One game at a time (freemiums welcome). First player in each group to win 3 games will advance to the final round. In the final round, first player to win 5 games will be crowned champion. Simple, right?

The first map of the round will be Classic. After that, the first player eliminated in the game will choose the map for the next round. I want this tournament to focus on "standard" maps (not maps with starting positions & lots of neutrals), so the following maps are prohibited:

[spoiler=Prohibited Maps]Age of Realms 1
Age of Realms 2
Age of Realms 3
All Your Base
Antarctica
Arms Race
Baseball
Christmas
City Mogul
Clandemonium
Cuban Missile Crisis
Das Schloss
Feudal Epic
Feudal War
Hive
King's Court
King's Court II
Jamaica
Lunar War
Middle Ages
Monsters
New World
Northwest Passage
Oasis
Operation Drug War
Peloponnesian War
Poker Club
Route 66
Salem's Switch
Trafalgar
Treasures of Galapagos
World 2.1
Woodboro
WWII Poland

note: I reserve the right to modify this list for any I missed or any new maps introduced to beta[/spoiler]

Edit: There will be a 30 round limit on games. Any game lasting more than 30 rounds will be declared a tie, and a new Classic game will be created in its place.

Edit 2: You have 24 hours from the time I send the PM to choose your map. If I don't get a response, the next round will be on Classic.

You're probably right. On a very quick second thought, Hive's gone. If I missed any "castle maps", let me know. Thanks.
